Fab Friday Birthday

I made this card on Wednesday but I'm pretty slack when it comes to taking photos - half the stuff I put together in my craft room doesn't make it to blogland. Since this is for the Fab Friday 11 sketch I thought I'd better get a wriggle on and upload it. There is a lot of lovely inspiration on their blog so be sure to head over and check it out. It's fast becoming one of my faves.

I imagine many of you are groaning at my use of the Sweet Life stamps agaaaain. I can't get enough, just love 'em. The colour combo I've used this time is Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose and Real Red. I'm trying to increase my stash of birthday cards so they're the sentiments you'll be seeing plenty of in coming weeks.

Other news - Gorgeous Kid has completed his first week at high school and absolutely LOVES it. So grateful. Phew. I hope he continues to love it. Funny thing...last year he was happy to have one sandwich (or similar) and a fun bun from our local bakery included in his lunch. This year, however, he's a big boy and has asked me to drop the fun bun and include two sandwiches. He makes me smile.

What an absolutely beautiful card! I love your color choices, and your stamping and cutting are perfect. I love the textured white background too. This is such a clean and crisp card -- I love it! Thanks for joining us at Fab Friday!
